Zhan Zhao and colleagues are walking in Shasha

After talking for half a day with Zhan Zhao, Qin Tong felt tired and fell asleep unconsciously.She herself was drowsy and had nightmares for a long time, and her sleep was not very solid. When she opened her eyes, she was still a little dazed, and she just stared at the ceiling in a daze.It took Qin Tong a long time to realize that it was probably Zhan Zhao who saw her falling asleep before and moved her to the bed.So Qin Tong sat up on the bed and took a look, but saw that the room was empty. It turned out that Zhan Zhao had gone back to his room early.

At this time, it has not been mated yet, and the heat of noon has dissipated a lot, but there is still a lingering power.Qin Tong lifted the quilt out of bed, took his shoes to the window and looked through the gauze drawer, the sun was still shining outside.She was afraid that Zhan Zhao was still asleep at this time, so she would not be able to disturb him, so she put on her clothes and sat on the small table by the window, and picked up a book to read.

The book had been placed in a sewing basket next to the table before, Qin Tong only thought that a past guest had left it carelessly, unexpectedly turned over two pages, only to find that it was a volume of handwritten poems.Although Qin Tong had read some books in the past and had a little understanding of Jinzhen's poems, he only liked to play around on weekdays, and was the laziest in playing with these pens and inks, so he lost interest.She roughly read a few poems, and seeing that they were all romantic words, she felt even more boring.

In particular, Qin Tong also saw that the signature behind each poem was Tiantian Layman, so he couldn't help being even more amused, thinking: "Tiantian Layman, this name sounds like a child's play, so it can be seen that the author is not a famous person." The collection of poems was put back where it belonged.

Just as he didn't know what to do to pass the time, Zhan Zhao over there heard the sound of her getting up, and was already dressed.Seeing Qin Tong sitting by the window wearing only a long gown, Zhan Zhao smiled and said, "Why haven't you put on your clothes yet? I thought you were up."

"I just woke up. I didn't call you because I was afraid you were still asleep." Qin Tong also stood up with a smile, put on his clothes properly, raised his hands to straighten his clothes, and asked Zhan Zhao, "Let's do it now." In the past?"

Zhan Zhao sat down at the table, poured two cups of tea for Qin Tong and himself, and replied, "I sniffed out the wind in the village while you were asleep, and sure enough, the owner of Guo Zhuang had put Hua and Bai together. His death was concealed, and the guests who came to the Holy Reception knew nothing about it.”

"What if the murderer commits another murder?" Qin Tong felt inappropriate, "It's better to tell everyone to be prepared. Isn't it easy for the murderer to cover it so tightly?"

Zhan Zhao sighed: "The Qingsheng Reception is also one of the means by which Xinghua Village Distillery communicates with various businesses. If the murder of someone in the village is easily released, I'm afraid their business will be hit."

"Is business more important than two lives?" Qin Tong was annoyed when he heard that, "This Mr. Guo is too confused." She turned and asked, "Have you ever reported to the government?"

Zhan Zhao replied: "The village has already sent people to the city, but the county government sent people to come over. I don't know when." Seeing Qin Tong's angry face, he smiled and persuaded, "You don't have to worry too much. Well, we don't have to rely on them. The government works according to the rules. Even if they come, it's just an investigation and interrogation. The death of Hua and Bai is so strange. Gotta understand."

"What brother said is right." Qin Tong also calmed down after hearing the words, and sat beside Zhan Zhao and said, "If they don't investigate, and us, we can't let the murderer go unpunished."

After talking, the two got up, and quietly went to the back garden without making a fuss.At this time, there were not many guests in the back garden. Most of the big guys had had wine in the morning, and they were sleepy and lazy in the afternoon.Therefore, in the huge garden, only the sound of cicadas and the rustling of leaves can be heard, and there is no sound of human beings. Even the servants and servants went to take a break if they could. There are only a few people sitting under a big cypress tree not far away. Take the shade and watch it.

Qin Tong and Zhan Zhao chose a small path to enter the garden, and as soon as they entered the garden, there was a breeze and it was very cool. Qin Tong couldn't help laughing and said: "It's cooler here than outside, and it's very quiet." She talked with Zhan Zhao, On the one hand, they walked to the spring where they heard the dispute.Along the way, Qin Tong found that the earlier stalls had been removed, and a new batch came up.It's just that the two of them have something on their minds, so Qin Tong can only look at those wine cups and feast his eyes if he is still interested in drinking.

Not long after, Zhan Zhao had led Qin Tong to the stream.The surroundings are quiet and quiet, only the sound of gurgling water can be heard, and the clear spring water makes flakes of snow-like spray on the smooth stones.Qin Tong only felt relaxed and happy, because he said: "Such a good place, I feel that my mind is broadened as soon as I come here. I don't know how Guo and Hua quarreled, and why they quarreled."

Zhan Zhao was leaning against a tree with his arms crossed, and he stepped on a big rock.His eyes wandered between the spring and the forest beside him, and he said indifferently after hearing the words: "I'm afraid that the two of them have always been dirty. Didn't Brother Liu say that Mr. Guo and Brother Bai got married because of his engagement to Brother Bai's sister?" More recently. Brother Hua has a lot of grievances about this, and there has been a rift between the two."

"But for this matter, is it worth thinking that they are arguing in front of the guests?" Qin Tong felt more and more strange when he thought about it, "It's not that the little sisters have a good relationship and can't tolerate others. A man, even if it's because of something else There is a difference between closeness and estrangement, so is it such a big deal?"

Zhan Zhao said in a low voice, "Perhaps their relationship was generally deep before. It's just that Guo and Bai got closer after getting married, so Brother Hua must have complained."

"I think it might be because of something else." Qin Tong suddenly lowered his voice, "Do you think Brother Hua secretly admired the girl from the Bai family? He was robbed of love by Mr. Guo, so the two of them lived together." rift."

Zhan Zhao mused, "Firstly, it's hard to verify this kind of thing, and secondly, we don't want to disturb the dead by talking nonsense." He looked into the woods, straightened up and said, "Don't make wild guesses, either. Let's go into the woods and see what we might find otherwise."

"Okay." Qin Tong followed Zhan Zhao and walked into the woods. The wind rustled through the treetops. She hurried to catch up with Zhan Zhao and muttered, "It's so gloomy." , Why is it so gloomy. I think you are scaring yourself, or you should follow me closely, and don’t call the wolf here after seeing the shadow of the tree and screaming in fright.”

Qin Tong resentfully stretched out his hand and pinched Zhan Zhao, saying, "You'll make fun of me, slow down, and wait for me."

The two entered the woods while talking, and Zhan Zhao stopped at one place and said, "The quarrel I heard this morning came from near here, and it's probably here." There was an open space where he was standing. , the weeds on it were pushed to the side, obviously something had pressed on it before.

Qin Tong sniffed, and replied: "There is a smell of wine here, there probably was a booth here a while ago." As she spoke, she walked around in circles and said to herself, "I just don't know where Brother Hua came from alone. It’s a different way, and I didn’t even think to ask Big Brother Liu to find out.”

"No need to ask," Zhan Zhao raised his hand and said, "Mr. Guo must have led the guests along the road here. Brother Hua parted ways with them. Either return the same way, or go this way." He raised his finger as he spoke. down a path.

Qin Tong's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "It's true, let's go down this road." He pulled Zhan Zhao's sleeves and walked down this path.

This path is winding, with weeds, wildflowers, thorns and bushes on both sides. Obviously, no one takes care of it on weekdays, so it is a deserted path.Qin Tong and Zhan Zhao had to tie their clothes around their waists, so as not to be caught by some tree branches.Qin Tong murmured, "When people get angry, they really lose their minds. Why did they go down such a road? I don't know how long it took."

"It doesn't have to be from here," Zhan Zhao said, "It's hard to guarantee that Brother Hua will not return the same way, or go directly through the forest to the other end." As he walked, he still kept an eye on Qin Tong, for fear that Qin Tong would accidentally fell.He practiced lightness kung fu by himself, so naturally he didn't pay attention to such a way.

The two walked carefully all the way, but the sound of the water was always far and near, and it never stopped.Qin Tong was panting from exhaustion, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "When I saw my father handle the case before, I thought it was so easy, but I didn't expect that it would not only take a lot of effort, but also work hard."

"You're tired now?" Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand to touch her, and said, "I thought you were someone who could endure hardships on the way from Shizhou City, why did you show your original shape today?"

Qin Tong said with a smile: "At that time, I didn't dare to shout tired, for fear that you would dislike me. After all, you are the one who does the dirty and tiring work, and I still shout tired, isn't it just looking for a beating?" She was talking , looked up and suddenly saw a corner of the eaves hidden in the forest, couldn't help wondering: "Where is this?"

"It's the ruined temple, do you remember?" Zhan Zhao had already felt the road clearly in his heart, he saw that there were only a few steps to go, and Qin Tong was so tired again, he simply complained and supported him. Qin Tong jumped up from his waist, and landed steadily outside the forest with a few points on his toes.

Qin Tong had already grasped Zhan Zhao's arm tightly, and did not let go when he landed, and said with a smile: "Live god, you really saved my life, did you teach me how to fly through the clouds, okay?" Zhan Zhao was so angry He laughed and scolded: "You're talking crazy again, watch the road carefully."

Qin Tong made fun of it for a while before looking up, but saw that this was behind the ruined temple.She poked her head, and she could still see the clear spring surrounding the small temple.Just as he was about to speak, Zhan Zhao suddenly yelled: "Who is it?!" Suddenly, he jumped up, and like a vigorous civet cat, he rushed towards a nearby tree.

Hearing the sound of "Pu Leng Leng", a woman in green clothes jumped down from the tree, holding a steel knife in her hand, she looked at the two of them upside down.

Zhan Zhao suddenly stopped, and Qin Tong recognized the person behind him at a glance, and couldn't help but exclaimed, "It's you!"

The woman snorted coldly, turned her head and left.Qin Tong suddenly came to his senses, and shouted: "Miss Bai, stay here!" She walked forward a few steps and shouted: "Sister, are you here for Brother Ling's business?"

As expected, Miss Bai stopped in her tracks without turning around, and asked coldly, "What did you say?" She said every word, and Qin Tong couldn't help shivering when she heard it.

Zhan Zhao quietly protected Qin Tong behind him.
